This collection of short stories takes you to many exciting places the author has lived in and traveled; it exposes you to the struggles and losses of individuals that have escaped from authoritarian regimes, such as Cuba and the Soviet Union, to find freedom in the United States of America. It reaches from betrayal and narcissism -- and the damage done to others -- to the charming innocence of a child asking to be told a story and the reminiscing of an old man who tells his Japanese friend how progress distorted his life's memories. There are unexpected twists to many of these stories, not to forget a subtle sense of humor, that both intrigue and touch the heart.
